Chapter 818: Goddess!
Every minute was a battle for a life and death, so no one spared any effort in supporting the soldiers on the front line They cheered and praised even though the benefits were rets, and they felt their odds were improved
Lan Qing, Kang Hui, and Hua Li focused this passion They were heroes to all of mankind, and their victory of the alien horde had i the Northern populace, asking why they hadn’t sent more troops with Tyrannosaurus The politicians had no words to answer theed with the wind
The nervous buzz was alood or bad
Middle Heaven, Tyrannosaurus, and Poseidon flew on in v-fore fro fleets were not around the bastions but within their for in the spaces between them
This had been Lan Qing’s idea, and the purpose behind it was simple Bastions were the most defensible shi+ps huainst strong alien offenses The supporting vessels weretheet in the way of the bastion’s armaments
The drawback was that this forile and their speed suffered But, like a hedgehog, they could bristle up at the first sign of an enemy and be ready for battle None of the fleet commanders found fault in the decision to use this for Hui With so lad safety was considered It cost the lives unnecessarily In the vastness of space there was no shelter and their foe could appear at any time
Another battle could erupt at any moment, one that could mean defeat for them and their species Every soldier quietly waited for that moment to arrive
Lan Jue, Qianlin, and the other Paragons had all been left on Angel This tiroup included the Master of Wine, Bize
Granny Bess, as she had once been known, had absconded to the Barrohile the ar its preparations There she explained their situation to Aubert de Villaine and both Paragons had returned together It was strange to have theas a sentient knot of vines, but he was still a Paragon Any help was appreciated and improved mankind’s chances
Star Division had also been left behind Their role as rear defense was important, and no one knehat the aliens would throw at the It ise to assu their back exposed
“Teel, your attention please Heed the recording”
The planet-wide announcement captured everyone’s attention Survivors froathered here, but it didn’t feel crowded Many had lived, but ression
Over the last several days the survivors had started to settle down and reestablish theed to accomplish much in a short period of time
As resources continued to flow in the residents were at least able to live with some sht in to sustain their colony, however Recreational areas had even been constructed, so that the people could gather and hear news from the outside
Holographic ih the existing infrastructure that survived the attack There was no functional concept of family anymore, and everyone was huddled in homes hoever else needed shelter
“Our soldiers have been dispatched to Europa, ready to give their lives for the future of our species” The i the three bastions and twelve fleets advancing toward the system’s center
The viewers answered with shock and anxiety Could they win? Was there a chance? As the thought flitted through their one, e do, they thought
Yet as the fear took hold the picture changed again Rows of i artillery appeared before them
“We know this can be frightening, but take heart Our planet is well protected by a defensive array no less than ten tiinally These installations will protect us frouarantee your safety We ask that you go about your lives normally and wait for news of victory from our heroic warriors abroad”
The iuns calmed some of their fear, but these citizens were still survivors of a very recent catastrophe The moment of confidence was short-lived, replaced with dismay over their future
Of course they had planetary defenses before the aliens arrived! However even if they bolstered these systeainst another attack? Now that the allied forces werein for the final battle, did that mean they’d abandoned them?
